OXFAM Unwrapped is an alternative to most donation programs in that it offers a selection of gifts specifically designed to be more than just a one-time hand-out. Each object is chosen
because it can help with the independent renewal of a community in need, making its benefits last well beyond the initial donation.

One such gift is a healthy goat.
|
|
- Goats produce a ton (literally) of nutritious milk each year. This milk is a vital to a starving child’s fight for
survival and can greatly help single mothers living in poverty.
|
|
- Goat manure fertilizes and enriches soil, greatly improving crop yield. This helps a family produce their own food, both for eating and selling.
This self-sufficiency is vital to the renewal of a community.
|
|
- The first female kid to be born to a donated goat is given to another family in need, passing along the
benefits exponentially and bolstering the community even further.
